Well a bipod isn't a VFG, but I assume a Grippod would be a bipod VFG in the eyes of the law.

You think the ATF would assume that a product explicitly marketed as being both a bipod and a grip would in this case take the charitable interpretation that it was only the one that isn't a felony?

I've seen the future, and it has hooves.

No pic because I was driving, but I witnessed tacticlol tonight.

I was going to a baseball game, and pointed out how one of the officers directing traffic was probably a lefty because his gun was on his left side. Of course, the next officer had his gun on the right hand side...

...The next officer, the one in the lot itself, had two guns. Reflecting on it now, though, they were backwards. One was on his left side, facing the proper way to be drawn on the left. The other was on his right side, but with the magwell facing me as if it was meant to be a crossdraw.

I thought he just had two guns and was ready to wield his Glocks akimbo, but now I'm not really sure what he was trying to accomplish.

Note: He had two functioning arms, so it wasn't some sort of "I only have one arm so I carry a second gun instead of trying to reload my first gun" sort of thing, either.

Are you sure they were two firearms? The weapon on his right side could be a Taser, which would make sense.

Cross draw was a Taser, I would be $Texas on it.

Wish I could have taken a picture, but they were definitely two guns - Glocks of some variety.

So, I did some quick googling and found one that looks really similar to a Glock from a distance. I still say that the magwell area of the device looked exactly the same as the pistol of the surrounding officers.

It's a stealth shotgun so you can't see the spread coming.

With the one on the bottom, is the actual shotgun just sitting on that stock? Look at the back - does it just seem that way, or is it actually just laying there?

I think that's just oil staining the aluminum block that fixes the pistol-grip and stock to the receiver - makes it look like a shadow on. If you look that the barrel clamp and them back, you do get an MC Eischer effect.

I see that you are correct, since you can see the light source, the shadow would be at the top.
